From the smallest state to the biggest city
Back to minimum wage, getting unpaid, I've been there before
If I lose my way, man it won't be pretty
With my shoes unlaced, tripping on stage, make a break for the door
Now the city don't sleep and we take the stairs for the exercise
How does anyone meet with the fakest stare and the big club lights?
Thought I lost my key, well it turns out it was right there in the door
Now it's looking at me like there ain't no use in what I'm fighting for
Singing on and on till my voice goes hoarse and the band won't play
If I lose it all, will I still be here tomorrow? But today
I know that I'm safe, it shows 'cause
The banker told me it's cold outside and there ain't no use to what I'm fighting for
Do I need some help or are the stars aligning?
Find it harder to tell, harder to write, harder to reminisce
I never lose myself, I'll be fighting till
The banker tells me I'm outta luck and there ain't no loan to bring me back from this
Now the city don't sleep and we take the stairs for the exercise
How does anyone meet with the fakest stare and the big club lights?
Thought I lost my key, well it turns out it was right there in the door
Now it's looking at me like there ain't no use in what I'm fighting for
Singing on and on till my voice goes hoarse and the band won't play
If I lose it all, will I still be here tomorrow? But today
I know that I'm safe, it shows 'cause
The banker told me it's cold outside and there ain't no use to what I'm fighting for
